This is by far my favorite show....EVER. I originally am a French Horn Player but after seeing this show, I decided to pick up precision. Now I am in my Sophomore year, going to be a Junior next year, and I just made Tenor Section leader for my high school. Music does amazing stuff.
My percussion teacher played bass 5 in this ensemble and showed our ensemble this video and made it a point mention that the cymbal player had some kind of injury to his leg and still performed. So it is very true. Shhhh.
+brod drums It's called a "hand to hand." Bass 1 plays constant triplets. Bass 2 does the same, but starts a sixtuplet partial later, and doesn't play a downbeat.
you can see it on the performers faces that THIS was THE ONE. the run where everything just locks into place and you can tell the performers are hyped on that
It's true. If you watch videos of them rehearsing during finals week, he's not in them because they didn't want to overdo it. Also, he was using crutches during retreat.
I am currently in the Escambia HS Indoor Percussion group The Diamonds and we are actually using the underside of the floor Rhythm X used for this show, this was one of my favorite shows ever
I believe if you look up the word 'talent' in the dictionary, this video is used as the definition. I was there in person for this, and the crowd reaction was amazing! We all stood up and clapped forever! They deserved the win. Though I'm not sure how they didn't get a perfect score...
Go to their facebook page, look back to one of their posts after finals. It confirms it right there. And it was a broken foot, not leg but still, badass.
nope its 100% true. I have a friend that was in the group that year and he told me about that. If you know anybody in the ensemble you should ask them.
It wasn't a broken leg. But he did have a fracture somewhere within his foot. I was on staff at another group and we know a lot of people on staff there. They told us finals day.
His leg wasn't broken, it was hurt, and there was an injury, but it wasn't so bad that it could stop him. But if most people had it they wouldn't be out there.
question: Does anybody know what head the beginning marching snare is using? im a percussion instructor for a high school in CA and our head director wants an old traditional snare sound for their parade march. can anyone help me out? id really appreciate it. thanks
Adrenaline is what keeps you going, so yeah it's not a broken leg its a foot, but either way him still being able to perform shows. Just saying, I only went Dayton and performed, you know, so I wouldn't know what's up

+Thomas Stoliker Yeah man I love precision lol
Thomas Stoliker same lol
I had no idea that this was your origin story
I love the fact that they did the epic fight scene with romantic music going on
This video does not do this show justice...it was so breath taking live.

That cymbal action. Whole show is just filled with constant badass flips, maneuvers and constant bad assery
Ehh.. ive got to say their cymbal line is their worst element.
I love how everyone shuts up at 1:09 because they know what's coming.
was bass 1&2 splitting 4's or triplet roll
+brod drumz Hell if I know hahah

So many memories from this year. Thankful to have been a part of this special season.
every snare player was like NNNOOOOO!!! at 6:13
a snare players nightmare
A strong left shot, missed :/
Jeremy Cuffy the music was originally written as a rim click so technically Tom played it right
Dylan Abner really??
Michael, you are a Godsend. Thank you for the upload.
On a more related note, this was the most amazing WGI show I have ever seen.
One of the best performances rhythm x has performed

One word describes their quad and bass line- Unbelievable
those mallet tosses from the basses at the end, awesome! :D
I am currently in the Escambia HS Indoor Percussion group The Diamonds and we are actually using the underside of the floor Rhythm X used for this show, this was one of my favorite shows ever
I can recite almost every word of this speech. And this is my first time seeing the show
Well, its been almost 5 years now.....just now realizing my "YA BASS" @7:00 is there 0_0
TeeZee is that you?
@@chaser22081 Yes
It's true. I was there watching it live. He marched with a leg brace and during the show you could see his face of pain. I couldn't believe it myself
Damn, I can't believe I missed this performance.. oh well. At least I get to see it on UA-cam..
Guys, please.. Look up the ad I just spent two minutes dying of laughter. It's called Poo Pourri. Craziest thing I've ever seen. lol
Rhythm X is awesome just all of that was
God, I love that field drum intro.
This show is so powerful!
ahahaha i love how their last sample is "i'm gonna win"
and they won
haha i love that
Wow well I was in a winter percussion that was abke to be at many of the same competitions as them and they always were amazing to me :)
2014 is going to be a fucking crazy season for WGI!! Bring the show X!!
i wanna hear the judges tapes on this xd
Love this show
HOLY DIDDLE BASSES
5:50 - 6:32 I fucking love this part.
What about that tenor feature right after that chunk
What a kickass show
3:35 tenor split most amazing thing ive ever heard and 1:09 tommy roams hand to hand
Ryan Linhart you're gay
I believe if you look up the word 'talent' in the dictionary, this video is used as the definition.
I was there in person for this, and the crowd reaction was amazing! We all stood up and clapped forever! They deserved the win. Though I'm not sure how they didn't get a perfect score...
cause he missed the shot
4:53 lik dis if u cry evrtim...
3:37
1:09 I had to buy a brand new set of clothing.
Lol what did u do to it?
one of my favorites! Nice upload Conlee
There's actually a large number of WGI performers that perform with torn/broken parts but keep playing no matter what.
whoa hahaha thanks for not taking down my video! looking forward to see what you guys bring to the arena 2014! #rx14
3:50 Star wars force choke from the 2 snares visual? :D
Ive listened to the same 20 secs idk how many times (3:26-3:46). The music is jus so sick there and wut they play makes it better
Go to their facebook page, look back to one of their posts after finals. It confirms it right there. And it was a broken foot, not leg but still, badass.
That bass.
does he miss his left shot at the beginning of the closer?
yes
Sadly yes :,(
Yeah😢
What does it sound like?
That reminds me of when Drew Guy marched Bluecoats with a torn ligament in his foot.
nope its 100% true. I have a friend that was in the group that year and he told me about that. If you know anybody in the ensemble you should ask them.
Amazing!! very good men!
Bass 5's drill around 6:55.... holy crap
+Ryan Simms How did he not kill anyone?
IKR 😍😍😍
Ryan Simms its not as hard as it seems i marched fifth for four seasons now and its mostly momentum
They won. I'm pretty sure they had a record breaking score as well.
They wheeled him out on a cart after the performance, saw it in the tunnels after prelims. It was pretty crazy.
Folding laundry to this = EPIC LAUNDRY FOLDING!!!
that hand to hand bass split is inhuman....
I was there. He had some sort of injury, he was using crutches after the performance.
Actually, if I remember correctly, they confirmed this on their Facebook or Twitter after finals.
Crazy split singles
Oh wao!
It wasn't a broken leg. But he did have a fracture somewhere within his foot. I was on staff at another group and we know a lot of people on staff there. They told us finals day.
1:04 that bass solo,
It's not the critic that counts.
However, Caleb did in fact have a fracture in his foot for prelims and finals.
Why did this show score higher than 2009?
Because of score inflation due to strong 1st and 2nd place competition.
Why did this show score higher that 2010?
Because we were WAY gayer than 2009 OR 2010.
Bradley Perry Gay af
Because we actually played with clarity? What a concept
Muse
EVERY section...damn...
His leg wasn't broken, it was hurt, and there was an injury, but it wasn't so bad that it could stop him. But if most people had it they wouldn't be out there.
this is more inspiring than inspired
Splitting hand to hands
it was a stress fracture in his ankle. happened finals week. got this from a bluecoats snare
I love how they used Muse y as
Wow, Is an ensemble allowed to be that good?
Apparently. Broken City beat them this year too.
Omg dat mallet toss
It's true. Although I think it was his foot that was broken, not his leg.
aka Bluecoats indoor
@1:09 was bass 1&2 splitting 4's or a triplet rolls
+brod drumz haha triplets
32nd note hand to hands (bass tech at my school is 4th here)
Around 45-50 they have a part where it's in the hunger games
question: Does anybody know what head the beginning marching snare is using? im a percussion instructor for a high school in CA and our head director wants an old traditional snare sound for their parade march. can anyone help me out? id really appreciate it. thanks
1:08 what is that wizardry!?

Tritan117 He's also my Junior Varsity Percussion teacher, which means that I know him! lol he's AWESOME!!!!!
Is it Ryan on end here?
+Jacob Elfrank yep. And Man in the Arena was his senior year in high school
Lol at 7:07 "Yea bass!" in the background!
He had a stress fracture in his foot. He wore a boot all of finals week and only performed prelims and finals.
What did they place does anyone know??
Hey Michael, do you happen to have Infinity percussions performace? from 2013?
Didn't center snare used to have a tattoo on his arm?
the visual soloist cymbal player broke his foot and marched finals
Adrenaline is what keeps you going, so yeah it's not a broken leg its a foot, but either way him still being able to perform shows. Just saying, I only went Dayton and performed, you know, so I wouldn't know what's up
baddass.....
They mean PIW, which has way more of a weight than scholastic
YEAH BASS 7:13
5:07 lets face it, that was the reason they won.

What was the song they used
"Survive" by Muse
